I really must group up more in SWTOR.. the other day I went back to Taris and picked up a group for a Heroic-4 that I had outlevelled at 23.. In fact most of the group had outleveled this quest, except for a level 18 smuggler. Was it fun? Yes.. I quite enjoyed the stress [...]

Almost the new year

I see it’s been quite some time since I updated this. The main reason is, of course, lack of anything to say. But just to stop this blog from dying I’m gonna post anyway. So more ramblings for you! I’ve been playing a fair bit of SW:TOR when I’ve been finding time. My progression has [...]

re-reads

I was in waterstones the other day and noticed that Sherri Tepper ha a new book out. This was a surprise, I thought she had stopped writing. Anyway, I’ve not bought it yet, but I did re-read an old book of her’s a few months ago. A book called Grass. I remember the first couple [...]

Weekend of Beta

Just in case you’ve not the slightest bit of interest in Star-Wars The Old Republic held a mass beta weekend this weekend. This is where Bioware stress test their servers and try to make us all feel a little less anxious about just how far away the game is. Of course I played, not quite [...]

Cunnning plan

First off,   Guild. TcT (The Casual Travellers), still there, not been scared off by the other members. It’s awfully little to report, but then we have no game and so no drama, or even much interesting. Wanting game now please. Next up: Faffing around Vent: I have a spangly smartphone that can run Ventrillo, [...]

Guild update and Beta issues

Yea, so I’m still with The Casual Travellers (TcT). No worries with this guild so far, they still seem like a decent bunch, with a smattering of madmen to spice things up. Beta, I’m sure this is of very little interest, but there’s been a host of flak about the Beta testing phase. Bioware originally [...]

Guild hunting

In my run up to playing Star Wars the old republic, I’ve decided I’d join a guild. It may seem pointless what with the game still being a good few months off, but I’m bored, so whatevs. The main SWTOR site has a “search for guild” page that lets you see what guilds have been [...]

SWTOR podcasts, pre-release and so on.

I’ve just started listening to podcasts on Star Wars, not something I usually do. Normally they’re boring. But I’ve pre-ordered my copy of the game.. not that I really needed to, but since I know I’m going to buy it anyway I thought I might a well do so now. Anyway, I’m listening to the [...]

Ex ex guild

Oh wow, my ex guild is an ex guild. Or very nearly. The website is down and there’s some discussion over who should be theĀ  guildmaster. But it is an ex guild as far as I’m concerned. I stopped playing a bit ago and now i’m waiting on swtor – it’s going to be a [...]

Weather

One day recently when the winds were high enough to stop me going into work on my motorbike I in to an old desire and bought a wireless weather station with a wind meter. It arrived last friday and is now up and running and hooked into my pogoplug so I can see the what [...]
